It must be admitted that among the four people on the second floor, Zhang Heng paid the least attention to this young man called the microphone, because he was also the one with the lowest sense of presence among the four.

But as soon as the microphone spoke, it immediately attracted everyone's attention to him, Zhang Heng had also heard a lot of things related to the hive from Soap and Ali before, and knew that the most mysterious force in the southeast city had a very strong ability to collect intelligence.

Therefore, what surprised Zhang Heng was not that the other party even knew what he had for breakfast, but that he didn't expect the hive to speak for him.

Yes, that's right, on the surface, it looks like the microphone is showing off, and the top forces in the southeast city have the ability to watch his every move, and at the same time warn him not to try to lie next.

However, Zhang Heng also noticed that the microphone emphasized the close relationship between Zhang Heng and Commoder in all the wording, and also included Klinder in the category of Zhang Heng's political allies.

If there is any flaw in Zhang Heng's plan, it is that the alliance between him and Clinder is not solid, although he provided a win-win plan for Clinder, and believes that Clinder will be willing to accept this plan, but he can use this method, which means that the major forces in the southeast city led by the Jewish gang can also use the same method to bring Clinder to their side.

Zhang Heng has analyzed before that there are also political forces behind the southeast city, and the Jewish gang, the Golden Crown, and the hive rule here are not just violent means, they will spend a lot of money every year to give the senate to those fat-brained nobles, in order to maintain the semi-self-control state of this place.

This is probably the reason why Lockyd and the others were not as flustered as the people below when they heard that a thousand Praetorian Guards were about to enter here.

However, even if he knew that the microphone was well-intentioned, Zhang Heng still had to fight back in order to make a full set of tricks, and after the microphone finished speaking, he also spoke, "You were busy messing with women last night, and you drank all night, so you got up late in the morning, and ate lunch directly, ate olives and grilled fish for lunch, and you also had a fight with someone during the meal, in addition, there is reason to believe that you don't seem to be very satisfied with your performance last night, so you have been looking for ways to extend the time." ”

After Zhang Heng finished speaking, the microphone's face turned blue and white for a while, and then he was busy saying to the girl beside Zhang Heng, "Don't believe his words, he is talking nonsense, in order to retaliate against me, I just blew up his old bottom." ”

"Don't worry, of course I trust you more." The girl smiled sweetly.

At this time, Lockyd also finished eating the last piece of venison, and he thought that he hadn't heard Zhang Heng and the microphone's verbal exchange at all, so he put down his fork, pointed to the position of the lower head, and said, "Sit." ”

Zhang Heng sat down when he heard this, and the girl who came up with him sat next to Lockyd again, but she quietly moved her body and distanced herself from the microphone on the other side.

Lockyd did not wipe the grease stains from his mouth with a napper, which is also the eating habit he has maintained all these years, when he was young, there was nothing to eat at home, and he was reluctant to eat the food he stole outside, often only licking two bites, leaving some residue on his mouth, pretending to have eaten, and returning home to distribute the food to his hungry brother and sister, and over time he developed the habit of eating without wiping his mouth.

Although life gradually improved after that, and now he has become the leader of the Jewish gang, this habit has not changed, and he is not less complained about by his wife and children.

"What do you want?" Lockyd looked at Zhang Heng on the opposite side and said straightforwardly.

"The three major forces and the patrol team have joined forces to establish a new order for the southeast urban area." Zhang Heng replied.

"It can't be." Lockyd shook his head.

However, he didn't explain the impossibility, just waved his hand and asked the waiter to pour wine for Zhang Heng, and then continued, "You can't wait to do your first job, I can understand, although I am not very satisfied with the way you have taken during this time, but I don't want to entangle these little things with you anymore, so let's do it, you disband the people hired by the patrol, I guarantee that the security in the southeast city will improve after that, until you leave here, you get the political achievements you need, We can also end this farce sooner rather than later. ”

In all fairness, the conditions provided by Lockyd were quite good, he did not mention what Zhang Heng had done before, nor did he intend to investigate the damage caused by Zhang Heng to the order of the southeast city, and was even willing to send Zhang Heng away in a beautiful manner.

However, what he didn't expect was that Zhang Heng still insisted when he heard this, "I'm sorry, I don't plan to give up my request." ”

Lockyd frowned, "Do you know that even if you and Clinder can persuade His Majesty the Emperor to send the Praetorian Guard here, you will need the approval of the Senate?" I'm willing to treat you politely, not because I'm afraid of the 1,000 Janissaries, but I don't want to give money to the insatiable senators of the Senate, and if we continue to fight with each other, we will only cheapen those senators in the end, and take 10,000 steps back, even if you win in the end and get the permission of the Senate, but then what?

"You are not the first to want to destroy us, and you will not be the last, but the dynasty has changed, the emperor's portrait on the gold coins has changed and changed, and we are still here, of course, you can use the army to capture us, or even kill me, and destroy the Jewish gang, but as long as you give the people here a little time, they will rebuild everything we have built." Lockyd paused and said seriously, "We are all old people, and old people always hope that we can solve problems by relatively peaceful means, but old people also mean that we are not afraid of death." ”

"Well, excuse me, I'm still quite young, and I'm quite afraid of death." "But you don't have to worry about me, I'm just a small character in charge of communication." ”

After listening to Lockyd's words, Zhang Heng also spoke, "You misunderstood, I respect you very much, I have no intention of eliminating you or the Jewish Gang, and I will not change your way of life, I just hope that from now on the patrol team can participate in the management of the southeast city, instead of becoming a spectator like before." ”

"I see, you don't just want political achievements, but also want to cultivate your own power in this neighborhood." Lockyd's words revealed Zhang Heng's true purpose.

And Zhang Heng did not hide it, and generously admitted, "I have heard your story about how you started from scratch and eventually became the uncrowned king of the southeast city, and I, like other young people in this neighborhood, are also deeply inspired, and I also want to create my own career here." ”

"You're quite honest," Lockyd nodded, "It's good that young people are ambitious, but the problem is your identity, you're not from here, and it's not fair competition to have a patrol on your back, so it's impossible for me to watch you grow and grow." ”

This time it was Zhang Heng's turn to frown, he didn't expect Lockyd's attitude to be so tough, this old man could obviously make peace with those nobles in the Senate, why can't he tolerate the existence of a new force that will not shake the Jewish Gang.

As a result, at this moment, the boss of the golden crown, who had been closing his eyes before, opened his eyes and spoke, "What Mr. Lockyd means is that if you want to establish your power here, you first need to prove that you are also from here, so that we can consider accepting you. ”

"How do I prove it?"

"It's very simple, when you return to His Majesty the Emperor, we want you to help us kill someone." At this point, Lockyd finally said his true purpose in inviting Zhang Heng to the second floor.

Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, almost thinking that his relationship with the Blade of Balance was exposed, but fortunately, the old man on the other side added, "Patriarch Diwo Braye, we need you to find a way to end his political career and deprive him of his status as a veteran, his appetite is too great, we can't satisfy him anymore, in exchange, we can allow you and your patrol to develop here, but you can't go as far as you did before, if you agree, Let's talk about the division of forces among the patrols. ”
